One of the first things people unfamiliar with SLT think when they walk into the studio: What is that? "That" would be a megaformer—or a Pilates reformer with extra add-ons that work your body even harder. "SLT is a one stop shop," says Caitlin Krause, an instructor at the studio. "It's a muscle-quivering, sweat-inducing, total-body workout that is tough but fun."

Krause brings the fun (at least in part) by making sure her playlist is at the top of its game. "It's so important to throw in some heart-pumping songs three-quarters of the way in," she says. "That’s just about the time you're feeling exhausted but realize you still have about 15 minutes left." Can't make it to a class? Try one of Krause's mixes to power-up your next workout. "This playlist is perfect for any type of heart-pounding cardio: running, stairs, jump rope, and of course, dancing," she says.
